I think that's the same one they sell at hobbycity.com for something like twenty quid -no idea how much it would cost with shipping from Honk Kong though. Maybe best to check it out before buying 6 of them though!

I agree, i think ill lower the price to £45 posted, i will buy one on its own before i get 6 as i can see if the quality is any good. Thanks for the advice!

why would anyone buy one from you when they can buy it from a shop for less? have i missed something here?

cheers

$241 from HC inc shipping for 6
£146 using todays exchange rate = £24.33 each

Assuming you don't get clobbered by customs then import duty is payable (any amount over £120) and of course the obligatory VAT.

[Dedcalm]

I thought import duty was due on anything over something like £18, once they have applied the duty they then stick on VAT for the total inc P&P... would most likely work out more than GC supply them for without the worry and quicker.

Direct quote from HM Revenue & Customs

Goods purchased and imported into the EU with a value of over £18 (for VAT purposes) and over £120 (for import duty purposes), or good imported from one private person to another private person as a gift with a value of over £36 , are subject to customs charges.

And then there is ParcelFarce's £13.50 handling fee !

Think i'll pay 30 quid from giant cod

The chairman of my old club had one of these at the indoor event tonight, i got it flying eventually, but i think was down to his bad set up more than the heli

They're fine to be honest - a little bit sloppy and the bearings are not great but for £20 - £30 you can't really go wrong nice basher or a cheap scale bird.

Not for £60 tho!!! :O :O :O
